Narrow-Band Frequency Modulation: Lecture #16, May 3, 2011

1. Narrow-band frequency modulation results in an FM signal with a narrow bandwidth. 2. The spectrum of an FM signal contains a carrier signal and an infinite number of sidebands spaced at multiples of the modulation frequency. 3. For small modulation indices, the FM signal can be approximated as the sum of the carrier and just one pair of sidebands at f_c ± f_m.

Narrowband Frequency Modulation

Wideband Frequency Modulation


Narrow-Band Frequency Modulation

Narrow-Band FM means that the FM modulated wave has narrow


bandwidth.

Consider the single-tone wave as a message signal:

Amplitude Distortion of Narrow-band FM

Ideally, FM wave has a constant envelope

But, the modulated wave produced by the narrow-band FM differ from


this ideal condition in two fundamental respects:

The envelope contains a residual amplitude modulation that varies


with time

The angle contains harmonic distortion in the form of third-


and higher order harmonics of the modulation frequency
